Unlock Me

by Eroese

Light and Darkness, Yin and Yang. You cannot have one without the other, or else everything will go into discord. But what happens when there is gray? When you can't tell Light from Dark, what do you do? Who do you trust? Who is the enemy? What do you believe in? Most importantly, do you trust yourself?

Drip.

The sound of blood dripping on the cement floor. A lone girl, wrapped in chains sat in the middle of a room. No light, window, just pure darkness. All she had was herself, and her locket. It was a heart with wings, the key to it was nowhere to be found. All the locket said was, 'He who is destined to free this Angel who has sinned will be the one to open thee locket'.

The locket was handed to her by a woman, she gave no name and said that she is the key. The key to what? The girl pondered that for ages, no answer nor the lady showing up. Clink! The chains rattling against each other, worn down by age and just sitting there.

When is this going to end, the girl thought. She has been here more than a few days, years perhaps. Her blue dress all torn and just barely covering her body. Since she was bored, the girl sang.

"Enveloped in your heart,
I made a vow to love
When I am unable to sleep at night,
The matter how hard I cry,
Please Accept me,
I want to meet you right now.
My tears won't stop over flowing,
I want to touch you,
Because I love you, it hurts a lot"

The girl had tears down her face, it pained her to remember that day. Where she could laugh, and smile without all this pain. No on is going to come for me, the girl thought. Some one, please, just cut me from this line. So I no longer have to live through this. I want to be free.

As soon as she was closing her eyes, the door opened, for the first time in 300 years. She fainted soon after, the blurs of the people rushing towards her.
